Solaris to sell more buses to Czech operator

Solaris Bus & Coach singed a deal valued at PLN 104 million with the city of Ostrava's (Czech Republic) urban transport operator to sell 105 of its Urbino buses, the company informed. All the vehicles will be equipped with CNG (Comprasses Natural Gas) engines and delivered yet this year. "The Czech Republic has become one of our key and stable export directions. It is greatly satisfying to find out that our products are welcomed with such trust and good opinion with our neighbors to the south," Zbigniew Palenica one of the firm's board of management members said. There have been 174 buses and trolleybuses manufactured by Solaris operating in Ostrava until now.
